A kindly shop owner whose overwhelming gambling debts allow a greedy landlord to seize his shop of dusty treasures. Evicted and with no way to pay his debts, he and his granddaughter flee.

An elderly shop-keeper and his grand-daughter are threatened by the rich, mean-spirited dwarf Quilp, and decide to flee across England to escape him. They are pursued both by Quilp and by the shop-keeper's long-lost brother, who wants to find them for a different reason.—Snow Leopard

Quilp (Hay Petrie) is a money-lender who persecutes Little Nell(Elaine Benson) and her grandfather (Ben Webster), finally taking over their curiosity shop. Simultaneously, the grandfather's long-lost brother, now wealthy, is seeking the pair who flee before the menacing Quilp, and Nell and her grandfather join a wax works exhibition.—Les Adams <[email protected]>
